Discover AnywhereUSB Devices on Other Subnets This chapter explains how to enable the AnywhereUSB Configuration Utility to discover AnywhereUSB units on additional IP subnets. Adding IP Addresses to the Discovery List By default, the AnywhereUSB Configuration Utility scans the local subnet for AnywhereUSBs. To discover AnywhereUSB devices on other subnets, add their IP address or subnet to the Discovery List in the Discovery List Manager Dialog box. 1. Select Discovery List from the Edit menu. 2.
Configuration from the Web Interface This chapter describes using the web interface's Configuration, Management, and Administration sections and their sub-menus. With the exception of the title of the specific Configuration and Management screens, menus and sub-menus for both models remain the same. This feature is not available on the first generation AWUSB/5 model. Home Page The Home page is displayed when the web interface is opened.
Configuration prevent access by other users, close the browser window. Or, log back on to the device by clicking the link on the screen. After 5 minutes of inactivity, the idle timeout also automatically performs a user logout. Applying and Saving Changes The web interface runs locally on the device, which means that the interface always maintains and displays the latest settings in the AnywhereUSB.
Configuration Enabling and Disabling Network Services The Network Services page shows a set of common network services that are available for the AnywhereUSB, and the network port on which the service is running. Common network services can be enabled and disabled and the TCP port on which the network service listens can be configured. Disabling services may be done for security purposes. That is, certain services can be disabled so the device runs only those services specifically needed.
Configuration IP Network Failover Settings (AnywhereUSB/14 only) The IP Network Failover feature allows the AnywhereUSB/14 to recover from an Ethernet failure. The failover conditions are configurable, and once the AnywhereUSB/14 determines that the primary Ethernet link has failed, it will automatically route the Ethernet traffic to the secondary Ethernet link. Advanced Network Settings The Advanced Network Settings are used to further define the network interface.
Configuration keep-alive probe, and a Probe count which is the number of times TCP probes the connection to determine if it is alive after the keep-alive options has been activated. The connection is assumed to be lost after sending this number of keep-alive probes. Configure Serial Port (AnywhereUSB/14 and AnywhereUSB TS44 only) The Serial Ports page configures the serial port settings for the management port on the rear of the AnywhereUSB/14 and the four serial ports on the rear of the TS44.
Configuration 3. Click Change Profile. 4. Select the appropriate profile and Click Apply. 5. Enter the appropriate parameters for each profile; descriptions of each profile follow. 6. Click Apply to save the settings. A list of the ports available on the Digi device server along with a summary of each port's current configuration is displayed when you select Serial Ports under the Configuration heading. To Edit the Settings of a Port: Click on that port's link under the Port heading.
Configuration Parity Stop Bits Flow Control The basic serial port settings must match the serial settings of the connected device. If you do not know these settings consult the documentation that came with your serial device. These serial settings may be documented as 9600 8N1, which means that the device is using a baud rate of 9600 bits per second, 8 data bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit.
Configuration Configure SNMP Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a protocol that can be used to manage and monitor network devices. Digi devices can be configured to use SNMP features, or SNMP can be disabled entirely for security reasons. To configure SNMP settings, click the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Settings link at the bottom of the System Configuration page.
Configuration Remote Management Settings The Remote Management configuration page sets up the connection to the Connectware Manager server so the AnywhereUSB knows how to connect to the server. The Connectware Manager server allows devices to be configured and managed from remote locations. To properly use this facility, the Connectware Manager server must first be installed on a server system.
Configuration Connection Settings The Connection Settings are used in connecting to the Connectware Manager server. You can choose how your AnywhereUSB connects to and communicates with the Connectware Manager server: through a client-initiated or a server-initiated connection. In a client-initiated connection, the AnywhereUSB attempts to reach the Connectware Manager server to establish the connection.
Configuration Retry if the LKA update fails: If enabled, when a LKA update fails, the Digi device server will wait the specified amount of time before retrying the LKA update. Advanced Settings These settings are used in advanced situations and the defaults are typically suitable for most environments. These settings are used to control the keep-alive settings of the various interfaces and should only be changed when the defaults do not properly work.
Configuration Configure Security Features On the Security page, you can specify the authentication information required for logging into the AnywhereUSB. By default there is no password authentication. If you are accessing the AnywhereUSB by opening the web interface or issuing a “telnet” command, no login prompt is displayed. If desired, you can enable password authentication. After changing the user name or password, you will immediately be asked to log back in to the web interface using the new values.
Management Port Numbers for Network Services For each network service, the Port field shows the port on which the service is running. It is usually best to use the default TCP port numbers for these services because they are well known by most applications. Management The Management section displays additional information about the current connections to the AnywhereUSB. The example below shows a USB connection to a host computer with an IP address of 192.168.0.117.
Management • Backup/Restore: For backing up or restoring a device's configuration settings • Update Firmware: For updating firmware, including Boot and POST code. • Factory Default Settings: For restoring a device to factory default setting. • System Information: For displaying general system information for the device and device statistics.
Management convenience, where the first device's configuration settings are backed up to a file, and then the file is loaded onto the other devices. Update Firmware and POST Code The firmware and/or Post code for the AnywhereUSB can be updated from a file on a PC on the Update Firmware page. The AnywhereUSB automatically determines the type of image being uploaded.
Management Update Firmware from a File on a PC 1. From the main menu, click Administration > Update Firmware. The Update Firmware page is displayed. 2. Enter the name of the firmware or POST file in the Select Firmware edit box, or click Browse to locate and select the firmware or POST file. 3. Click Update.

To Reboot the Unit using the front panel reset button: 1. Hold down the front panel Reset button for about 2 seconds, until the front panel LEDs start blinking an amber color. 2.
Multi-host Connections This chapter describes the multi-host connections feature exclusively available on the AnywhereUSB/14 and AnywhereUSB/5 M models. The multi-host connections feature allows multiple host PCs to establish concurrent connections with the AnywhereUSB unit. Each host PC requests a different group of USB ports, where the group assignments have been previously configured on the AnywhereUSB unit.
AnywhereUSB Configuration 2. The RealPort USB configuration page is displayed. This page allows the user to select which physical USB ports on the AnywhereUSB unit are assigned to which Group number. By default, all the USB Ports are assigned to Group 1. Therefore, a host PC requesting either the Default Group, or Group 1, will take ownership of all of the physical USB ports on the AnywhereUSB unit.
AnywhereUSB Configuration In the example below, the AnywhereUSB/14 unit has been configured to have 14 Groups, each providing access to a single physical USB port. The Default Group has been configured for Unassigned, which would result in the AnywhereUSB unit rejecting any request from a host PC requesting access to the Default Group. Important: After clicking the Apply button, the AnywhereUSB MUST be rebooted in order for Group configuration changes to take effect.
Host PC Configuration Host PC Configuration The Group number that each host PC should connect to must be specified in the AnywhereUSB Configuration Utility. Each host PC may only connect to one Group. Afterwards, when the host PC connects to the AnywhereUSB, it will take ownership of the associated USB Ports(s). The following example is highlighting an AnywhereUSB/5 M model that has 5 Groups configured, each Group providing access to a single physical USB Port on the AnywhereUSB unit.
Host PC Configuration After the list of AnywhereUSB devices is refreshed (the F5 key performs a manual refresh), right click on the AnywhereUSB unit, or click the Connect button. A screen similar to the following is displayed. Note: The host PC will request Group 4 when establishing a connection with this particular AnywhereUSB unit. Note: Clicking the entry Connect to Group 4, or clicking the Connect button initiates the connection process between the host PC and the selected AnywhereUSB/5 M unit. 3.
Host PC Configuration In the event the host PC requests a Group that is not configured on the AnywhereUSB unit, the host PC Connection Status will display something similar to the following indicating that the selected Group is not configured on the given AnywhereUSB unit (see below). In the above example, the Host List column on the far right indicates that Groups 1 through 4 are associated with one or more USB ports, and there are no host PCs currently connected with one or more of these Groups.
